Building upon the success of its Skypod range of PVC-U skylights, Eurocell is launching its latest model – Skypod Acute. As the name suggests, the new addition features a steeper pitch: 35º in fact, a full 15º more than the current design.
According to Eurocell, the new 35º pitch is visually very different to the standard 20º, making it suitable for more commercial applications such as schools, colleges, hospitals and offices, where this pitch degree is better suited to larger, multi-storey buildings. According to Eurocell, this market tends to be dominated by aluminium products, so the arrival of the new Skypod provides an ‘aesthetically pleasing and cost-effective alternative’ for the installer to offer customers.
Skypod Acute sports the same narrow glazing bars and ‘generous’ sightlines for residential properties as the rest of the Skypod range. Furthermore, its square format now fits an even smaller aperture, allowing even more light into parts of the home that previously was not possible. In addition, no sidebars are needed on sizes up to 1.5m x 2.75m, so further improving sightlines and letting in more natural light.
Installation is quick and straightforward. Everything needed is supplied ‘out of the box’ and even the screw holes are pre-drilled for accuracy and convenience.
Skypod Acute is supplied with self-cleaning, temperature controlled glass in blue, neutral, bronze and clear as standard, with a U-value of 1.0W/m²K achievable.
As with all Skypod products, Skypod Acute has a 10-year guarantee and is available in the full colour range of anthracite grey, moondust grey, golden oak, rosewood and white – with a white interior finish as standard to maximise the light and airy feel. A further 30 colour options can be made to order in just three weeks.
Skypod Acute it available to buy in kits from any Eurocell branch or bar length for Eurocell fabricators and is available to order now.
